Introduction
Oakland County has a wealth of basic resources for children, ages zero to five,
and their families. The results of recent surveys reveal that many families are not
aware of many of the resources available to them.
Oakland County’s Parenting Resources: A Guide to Strengthening Families
is designed to increase awareness of our county’s resources. This guide provides
an outline of key trainings and resources in Oakland County where you can
find components of the Strengthening Families Framework. This tool seeks to
guide professionals and parents toward building stronger families through the
resources available in our county.
The publication and dissemination of this resource guide is made possible by the
following:
• Great Start Collaborative-Oakland
• Oakland Schools
How to use the
Parent Resource Guide
The Oakland County Parent Resource Guide is designed for the families of
children zero to five years of age and the agencies that provide services to these
children. We hope that families will find the guide helpful in accessing and using
the many resources available in Oakland County.
Take time to become familiar with all parts of the resource guide. Services
are listed alphabetically and provide basic information about services to our
youngest citizens.

Partners
The Great Start Collaborative-Oakland (GSC-O) is committed to ensuring that
all of Oakland County’s youngest citizens and their families have access to
services.
The purpose of the GSC-O is to assure a coordinated system of community
resources and support whereby all Oakland County families have knowledge
of and access to the services they need, which will result in their children
beginning Kindergarten ready and eager to learn.
GSC-O is a partnership of local stakeholders and parents building a
comprehensive early childhood system for our community, looking at all the
factors that influence a child’s readiness for school and life, including: early
care and education, physical and mental health, family support and parent
education.
The Early Childhood Investment Corporation was created in August 2005 to
ensure that every young child in Michigan has a Great Start and arrives at the
kindergarten door healthy and ready to succeed in school, with parents who
are committed to educational achievement. Accomplishing this important goal
is not the work of any one organization or individual, but will take the combined
efforts of parents, community leaders, business, the legislature, state and local
government, faith-based organizations, and philanthropy.
Oakland Schools serves 28 local school districts, 20 public school academies,
and nonpublic schools in Oakland County. Every district has a distinct character,
arising from its unique community of learners and educators. Yet every one of
the 28 districts shares a common goal: providing a quality education to every
student. Oakland Schools works with these districts, nonpublic schools and
public school academies to help each one preserve its own unique identity,
respect its special needs, and deliver quality educational programs to every
student in Oakland County.
